Most Americans like to believe that the citizens of Europe have been completely disarmed by their governments, but that’s only partially true. Gun rights vary considerably from nation to nation, and guns can still be had, even in places with strict laws. However, a very interesting trend has emerged in those places.   Continue reading “Record Gun Sales in Austria as Refugee Crisis Accelerates”

We all know that in most public schools in America, talking about religion is now strictly verboten. Those who pushed for this policy have always argued that it would be a violation of the separation of church and state. However, the argument goes both ways. If it’s going to be inappropriate for a teacher to push his or her religion on students in a public school, it should also be wrong for a teacher advocate atheism in the same forum.   Continue reading “Teacher Tells Students to Deny God Is Real or Receive Failing Grade”

The Bureau of Land Management broke the law when it sold wild horses to a rancher who profited from their slaughter, an Inspector General report has stated. No charges will be filed, despite allegations that BLM ignored clear signs of what was happening.

Tom Davis, a Colorado rancher, purchased 1,794 wild horses from the BLM from 2009 to 2012 at a cost of $10 each, though they came in truckloads. The federally-protected animals were then sold for 10 times as much to a Mexican slaughterhouse, reaping Davis a profit of about $154,000. The butchery violated both the BLM contract as well as the law, according to the IG report.   Continue reading “No charges filed after gov watchdog finds BLM illegally sold wild horses to slaughter”

It’s been nearly 20 years since the Dayton Accord put an end to the bloody war in the Balkans, which killed over 140,000 people after the Yugoslav government collapsed. However, there are rumblings in the nation of Bosnia and Herzegovina that are threatening to reignite the conflict.

As part of the Dayton Accord, two independent entities were created within the nation of Bosnia: the Bosniak-Croat Federation and the largely Serb Republika Sprska. The government in Sprska is planning to unveil a referendum on the anniversary of the Dayton Accord. There will be a single question on the ballot that will ask their citizens if they support the legality of their current union with the Bosniak-Croat Federation. Many are calling the question a veiled independence referendum that will give the president of Sprska permission to obstruct the laws and institutions of the central government.   Continue reading “A New War May Be Brewing in the Balkans”

Chances are you will never hear financial pundits on mainstream media warning the public about the billions of assets being dumped by foreign central banks and creditors like China and Russia. Most people in America don’t really care so long as they still have jobs or government assistance that lets them put food on the table.

But make absolutely no mistake – the winds of change are blowing like a hurricane and the coming economic devastation will be unprecedented in human history. Those who position themselves appropriately ahead of the landfall will significantly increase their chances of not only surviving, but thriving while the rest of the country goes into panic mode.   Continue reading “The Great U.S. Treasury Dump of 2015: “This decline is the most on record since the data started””

“I’ve been told by a senior police leader who urged his force to remember that their political leadership has no tolerance for a viral video,” Comey said as he was talking to law students, faculty, staff and some police officers at the University of Chicago Law School, according to the New York Times.   Continue reading “What’s led to spike in violent crime?
